Hospitalization Through Families’ Eyes: Comparing Inpatient Care Quality for Children With Sickle Cell Disease and Cystic Fibrosis in Canada

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic, inherited hemoglobinopathy that requires frequent hospitalization for disease‐related complications. Canadian data on inpatient care is limited. This study compared caregiver‐reported hospital experiences of children with SCD to those with cystic fibrosis (CF), a chronic, autosomal recessive ...

Time Toxicity in Wilms Tumor: Quantifying the Burden of Healthcare Interaction in the First Year After Diagnosis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Wilms tumor (WT) treatment imposes a significant time burden on patients and their families. Time toxicity is a patient‐centered metric that quantifies the burden of healthcare interaction. We sought to define time toxicity in the first year after diagnosis of WT and hypothesized that it would increase as tumor stage and treatment ...

Associations between oxygen delivery and cardiac index with hyperlactatemia during cardiopulmonary bypassCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Techniques, 2020
Objective: Metabolism management plays an essential role during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). There are different metabolic management devices integrated to heart–lung machines; the most commonly used and accepted metabolic target is indexed oxygen ...

Low Cardiac Index is Associated with Incident Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease: The Framingham Heart Study

Circulation, 2014
Background— Cross-sectional epidemiological and clinical research suggests that lower cardiac index is associated with abnormal brain aging, including smaller brain volumes, increased white matter hyperintensities, and worse cognitive performances. Lower

Hypothermia and postconditioning after cardiopulmonary resuscitation reduce cardiac dysfunction by modulating inflammation, apoptosis and remodeling

, 2009
Background: Mild therapeutic hypothermia following cardiac arrest is neuroprotective, but its effect on myocardial dysfunction that is a critical issue following resuscitation is not clear.

The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established therapy in related disorders such as Fanconi anemia (FA) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), but its role in A‐T is unclear.

Paradigm Change? Cardiac Output Better Associates with Cerebral Perfusion than Blood Pressure in Ischemic Stroke

Frontiers in Neurology, 2017
IntroductionIn patients with acute ischemic stroke, penumbral perfusion is maintained by collateral flow and so far is maintained by normal mean arterial pressure (MAP) levels.

Relationship between pulse pressure variation and stroke volume variation with changes in cardiac index during hypotension in patients undergoing major spine surgeries in prone position - A prospective observational study

Journal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2022
Background and Aims: Dynamic indices such as pulse pressure variation (PPV) and stroke volume variation (SVV) are better predictors of fluid responsiveness than static indices.

Changes in PCO2 with acute changes in cardiac index [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Anaesthesia, 1996
A direct relationship between cardiac index (CI) and end-tidal PCO2 (PETCO2) shortly after decreased CI was reported, but arterial PCO2 was not measured. Our purpose was to supply the missing information on the immediate effects of alterations in CI on PaCO2, PETCO2 and thus on Pa-PETCO2.We measured CI, Pa and PETCO2 and calculated the difference in 20
